After the prosperous Tang Dynasty

Xiao Yansui looked up at Gao Lishi, and Gao Lishi also looked at her quietly.

After a while, Xiao Yansui took a small step back, trying to make the two people's eyes a little bit even, then pointed to the palace and said: "I have to go and talk to Auntie."

Gao Lishi smiled, and the person following him naturally took a step forward, and said respectfully, "Xiao Liuniang, don't worry."

Obviously, he wanted to explain to Mrs. Pei for her.

The corner of Xiao Yansui's mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at that person, didn't say much, just patted the skirt of Ruqun lightly, and said seriously: "Then let's go!"

Gao Lishi smiled and made a gesture of "going this way" towards her, Xiao Yansui simply went with him, one tall and one short, and just walked in the same direction as when he just came.

When Gao Lishi just came out, the people sitting at the banquet thought that Xuanzong had something to do and ordered him to do it. Although they glanced at him, they didn't care much, but at this moment, Gao Lishi actually led a strange-looking The little girl came back together, and everyone couldn't help looking at her.

Xiao Song saw all this in his eyes, his face remained unchanged, but when the little girl came over, he stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Liu Niang."

These two simple words gave a clear and straightforward statement to the other people present who didn't know why - this child is the granddaughter of his Xiao Song's family.

Xiao Yansui also replied directly: "Ah Weng."

Gao Lishi had already walked to Xuanzong's side, and nodded slightly.

After Xiao Yansui, who was one step behind, greeted Xiao Song, he took two quick steps, and obediently stood in front of Xuanzong.

——Xuanzong is the name of the temple, Xiao Yansui is quite familiar with this name, at least he knows that there is one emperor in the Tang Dynasty called Tang Xuanzong.Unfortunately, when Xuanzong was still in power, Xiao Yansui didn't know about it.

Similarly, the name of the saint is naturally not mentioned by anyone on weekdays, so that Xiao Yansui has never heard of Li Longji, a name that is also very familiar.

In other words, Xiao Yansui, the current saint, has no idea which emperor of the Tang Dynasty he is...

Xuanzong looked at the only little granddaughter in Xiao Song's family with a smile on his face, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Although Xiao Yansui looked very obedient and obedient, standing in front of the public and being stared at by everyone, he behaved very calmly, obviously he was not a timid child.

"This..." Prince Li Heng's eyes couldn't help but a strange color flashed. Previously, Xiao Yansui's injury was well known to a considerable number of high-ranking people, but none of them ever thought of it. However, Xuanzong actually called this little girl over in public, and looked at her with a smile on his face, looking quite fond of her.

Li Chu, who was sitting next to Prince Li Heng, quietly exchanged glances with his younger sister Li Wenning and third younger brother Li Tan.

Li Wenning couldn't help but feel emotional, even among the princes and grandchildren, there are countless people who are not favored.Fortunately, when she was young, her elder brother Li Chu took care of her everywhere, as did her third younger brother Li Tan. Turn a blind eye to him.

And Xiao Yansui, as Xianggong Xiao's most beloved granddaughter, only suffered a few injuries, which could provoke Xuanzong to intervene in person. Even the crown prince Li Heng, had been using this as an opportunity before, trying to convey the goodwill of the East Palace to Xianggong Xiao...

On the contrary, Li Tan stared at Xiao Yansui with great interest. He was dressed in a little red skirt, which was lively and festive, and he was pleasing to the eye.From the moment she glared at him with the mosquito bag on her face, Li Tan knew that this little girl's courage was definitely not ordinary...

"How is the injury on your hand?" Xuanzong asked Xiao Yansui with a smile, not forgetting to joke with Xiao Song who was sitting next to him, "Your old man found a lot of precious medicinal materials from me a few days ago. go back."

Xiao Yansui blinked her eyes, thought for a while, and still felt that if a five-year-old child's words were impeccable, then people would feel that there was something wrong, so she raised her head and glanced at Xiao Song, and then answered softly Said: "My hands are all healed, and I even raised a puppy that I picked up on the mountain that time."

The second half of the speech was naturally a deliberate answer to the question. The five-year-old girl looked innocent, as if she didn't take the matter of being injured in Ximing Temple to heart.

When Xuanzong saw him, he was really happy in his heart. He couldn't help adding a little bit of favor to Xiao Song who turned a blind eye.

He has already punished Princess Wan'an, but although Princess Wan'an was at fault, if the Xiao family insisted on holding on, since Xuanzong had already chosen to protect his daughter, it would be unavoidable if he heard about it. Also get bored.

Looking at Xiao Yansui's appearance now, it seems that what happened before was just a small accident, and children have a lot of forgetfulness. Although the injury at the time was a mess, but now that the injury has healed, let's talk about her injury. I'm afraid, it's not as good as a puppy to attract the child's attention, as if the matter has passed so smoothly, Xuanzong's original guilt and concern will naturally dissipate with the wind, and he feels much more relaxed and happy in his heart.

He teased Xiao Yansui with a coaxing tone and said a few words, the satisfied Xuanzong handed her over to Xiao Song again, but ordered Gao Lishi to prepare more gifts for the little girl and send it back.

Gao Lishi naturally responded immediately, but Xiao Yansui, who was carried by Xiao Heng again, was lying on her brother's body, and when Xiao Heng blocked everyone's sight for her, she rolled her eyes in annoyance.

All the people present are human spirits, unless someone is deliberately looking uncomfortable, otherwise, at this time, how can anyone not open which pot and which pot to carry?For a moment, everyone was talking and laughing, it was very lively.

Xiao Heng patted his sister lightly, and couldn't help laughing and said, "Should I still take you back to Auntie's place?"

"Farewell, I'll just stay here with you!" Xiao Yansui pursed her lips.

"That's fine." Xiao Heng smiled, Xiao Yansui never cried or made noises on weekdays, and everything was negotiable, so that Xiao Heng subconsciously had some cognitive deviations when it came to raising a child. A real child who will make a fuss is not easy to coax like his sister...

Xiao Yansui grabbed Xiao Heng's sleeve and motioned him to take a piece of fruit from a nearby plate and pass it over to him, then turned to look at the many officials present, and whispered, "Who are they?"

Xiao Yansui knew Princess Yuzhen and Li Bai now, and most of the others were blinded, but she didn't care about it before, but after Xuanzong ordered Gao Lishi to bring her back, everyone was watching her , Xiao Yansui felt depressed after being stared at, so she couldn't help but want to find out everything.

Xiao Heng knew it well, when Xiao Yansui asked, he quietly pointed out all the people present one by one, and told Xiao Yansui all of them.

"...that is the prime minister of the Duke of Yan's mansion, Zhang Shuo Zhang Xianggong, and he is Zhang Jiulang's grandfather." Because the distance is relatively close, Xiao Heng didn't point out his hand, but whispered in Xiao Yansui's ear Said loudly: "The third from the left."

"Yeah!" Looking at Zhang, who looked normal and did not move his eyelids, Xiao Yansui nodded in understanding. Zhang said that she knew that besides being Zhang Dai's grandfather, he also edited "Big Brothers" together with Zhang Jiuling. The one in "Liu Dian of Tang Dynasty" is justifiably an expert who gives officials more than 100 days off every year!

In fact, Xiao Yansui also felt a little familiar with the name Zhang Jiuling. It was probably a name that appeared in high school Chinese textbooks at most in elementary and junior high schools, but because it was too long, she really couldn't remember it.

"The one next to Zhang Xianggong is Li Linfu, the Duke of Jin." Xiao Heng said in a low voice, "Li Xianggong is from the clan."

Xiao Yansui was stunned for a moment, and then took another look at Li Linfu.This person looked solemn and serious, and looked very cold and difficult to approach.

Because the surname Li was the surname of the country in the Tang Dynasty, many meritorious officials were given the surname Li since Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, so that the number of high-ranking officials and dignitaries expanded rapidly.

However, from the beginning of the Tang Dynasty to the present, the members of the Li clan who were born in the clan and can occupy high positions must not be underestimated.

Xiao Heng went on to introduce the next person, and when his eyes met Pei Yaoqing who was beside him, Pei Yaoqing smiled and waved at the two of them together.

Brother and sister Xiao Heng and Xiao Yansui are both the grandsons and granddaughters of the Pei family's direct relatives. This kind of relationship is also very close.

Xiao Heng greeted Xiao Song in a low voice.

Xiao Song raised his eyelids and gave Pei Yaoqing a sideways glance.

Pei Yaoqing also squinted at him, and then called her grandson and granddaughter over.

Pei Yaoqing grabbed her granddaughter's soft little hand and made a gesture in her own palm, which was less than half his size.

"It's fine, it's fine." Pei Yaoqing patted Xiao Yansui's hand, finally heaving a sigh of relief.

"En!" Xiao Yansui continued to nod.

Seeing this, Xiao Heng couldn't help laughing beside him.

Pei Yaoqing stroked his beard, and said: "After this Mid-Autumn Festival feast, there will be a [-]-day furnishing leave. How about the two of you go to Pei's house to play with your grandfather for a few days?"

"Huh?" Xiao Yansui, who was about to continue nodding "Mmmm", suddenly recalled, raised her head subconsciously, and looked at Pei Yaoqing.

The Pei family is the natal family of her mother, the Pei family. Princess Wan'an is so hostile to the Pei family, so she doesn't know if anyone in her grandfather's family has any clues...

What's more, Xiao Yansui had long planned to find out the truth from his grandfather Pei Yaoqing, so Xiao Yansui was really tempted by Pei Yaoqing's invitation for a while.

Sitting not far away, Xiao Song couldn't help drooping his eyelids and glared at Pei Yaoqing, but Pei Yaoqing just didn't know.

However, Xiao Heng couldn't help but think of Xiao Wu who, according to what his sister Xiao Yansui said, should be playing with Zhang Dai outside at this moment and who doesn't know what's going on inside the house.Thinking of the appearance of this younger brother making a fuss, Xiao Heng couldn't help but be a little bit amused.

Seeing Xiao Yansui's eyes clearly moved, Xiao Heng also nodded, and just explained in a low voice: "Grandfather, Liu Niang, I, and Wu Lang... always report to my parents and Ah Weng first. One sound."

Pei Yaoqing smiled and said: "Naturally, even if you go back with me today, I will definitely send someone to Xiao's house to deliver the letter."

After a pause, Pei Yaoqing said again: "Why don't Liu Niang go with me later, and you and Wu Lang will come back later?"

Pei Yaoqing smiled easily. After all, children are easy to coax when they are young, and it is inevitable to worship their ancestors during the New Year's Eve. Adults are busy, but children are actually not so leisurely. Naturally, Pei Yaoqing will not greet her grandson and granddaughter at that time Playing at home, not to mention whether Xiao Song will let him go, even if Xiao Song agreed, it is not appropriate to say it, unless it is just to visit relatives.

It would be better if after the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is rare to have a long vacation, coaxing away one by one, he is the child's grandfather, no one can tell if one is here!

"Huh?" Finding that her grandfather was talking about herself at the moment, Xiao Yansui couldn't help raising her head, glanced at Xiao Heng, and then stared at the smiling grandfather.

In the end, it was Xiao Yansui who was straightforward, the little girl's voice was soft and soft, but she had a good reason, "Yesterday, Auntie also told me that after the Mid-Autumn Festival feast, the family has to rush to make winter clothes."

"This," Pei Yaoqing was also in a bit of a dilemma. Although Mrs. Pei definitely did not do it herself to make winter clothes for her family and children, it would be inconvenient for Mrs. Pei not to preside over these things at home as the mistress.Pei Yaoqing could blow his beard and stare at Xiao Song, but he couldn't bear to bring trouble to his own daughter, Mrs. Pei.

Xiao Heng patted his younger sister on the head, only to hear the little girl mutter: "My hair!" He couldn't help smiling, and said to his grandfather Pei Yaoqing: "In a few days, I will go with my mother and sister again, Go to grandparents' house to bother!"

Pei Yaoqing nodded, "That's fine too."

Sitting here and talking to Pei Yaoqing for a while, Xiao Heng hugged Xiao Yansui back again. The two brothers and sisters still got together, murmuring the identities of the many officials present in a low voice.

After Xiao Song sat steadily for a while, he still couldn't help but ask, "Just now, what did your grandfather say?"

Xiao Yansui glanced at Xiao Song, and then at Pei Yaoqing, who seemed to be looking at this side, couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, and whispered to Xiao Song: "Grandpa asked me and my brother to stay with him for a few days. .”

"Oh." Xiao Song nodded calmly, as if he was in control, but when he turned his head, he squinted at Pei Yaoqing.

Xiao Heng and Xiao Yansui looked at each other, and neither of them paid any attention to the eyebrow-eye lawsuit between their grandfather and grandfather, just talking in a low voice to themselves.

"...The one sitting behind Princess Yuzhen, with his head bowed all the time, is the 18th son of the sage, Shou Wang Li Mao." After a pause, Xiao Heng lowered his voice, and said softly: "It is also the third son of Concubine Wu Hui who passed away before. However, the two older brothers in front of King Shou died young. Therefore, just after King Shou was born, he was taken to the home of Li Xian, the elder brother of the saint. The concubine Yuanshi took care of her on her behalf, and she pretended to be the son of Yuanshi. It was not until Shouwang was in his teens and he was in good health that he was admitted to the palace and granted the title of Shouwang."

Xiao Yansui couldn't help opening her eyes when she heard this. She didn't expect such a thing to happen. Speaking of it, this kind of thing seems to be a secret of the palace, but probably a lot of people know about it...

It wasn't until this moment that Xiao Yansui finally realized it. No wonder Shou Wang Li Mao kept his head down. He grew up in his uncle Ning Wang's palace, so he is not familiar with the palace!

After Xiao Heng told him quietly that the slender and fragile woman next to Shouwang Li Mao was Xuanzong and Concubine Wu Hui's youngest and well-loved daughter Princess Xianyi, he looked at Princess Xianyi Xiao Yansui couldn't help being stunned for a moment with a forced smile on his face, and then realized that he had actually overlooked one thing just now.

——Concubine Wu Hui had just passed away in less than three months, and others had long dismissed it as such. However, Concubine Wu Hui's biological children probably hadn't recovered from the grief of losing their mother at all.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, which means reunion. It is impossible for the birthday king Li Mao and Princess Xianyi not to attend. However, sitting here and watching other people's family reunion, they still feel a little uncomfortable...

Xiao Yansui, who thought she had just found out the truth, nodded secretly, and then turned her eyes away, naturally she never noticed that Princess Xianyi's son-in-law, Yang Hui, was not sitting there with her bereaved mother. Princess Xianyi felt sad in her heart, but every time she accidentally caught a glimpse of the beauty in the palace costume beside Xuanzong, she was clearly frightened and restless...

Wait until the afterglow of the setting sun casts down piece by piece along the magnificent palace, the long steps reflect a touch of golden red in the setting sun, and the carved railings and jade brickwork are also rubbed with a little yellow gold, as if compared with the daytime, It added a bit of brilliance, and even the unknown coldness and loneliness in this bustling and beautiful palace seemed to have dissipated.

When night falls, the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet ends here.

Xiao Heng was walking with Xiao Song and Xiao Hua, but Xiao Yansui was still carried out by him.

After waiting outside the palace gate and saying goodbye to Princess Ningqin, Mrs. Pei with her maid looked over, showed a slight smile, and asked in a warm and concerned voice, "Is everything all right?"

Xiao Yansui nodded, and stretched out her hand towards Mrs. Pei, "Mother."

However, Xiao Heng didn't put his sister in Pei's carriage as he did when he came here, but said to Pei: "Aniang, let Liu Niang go with me in the carriage, and I will take her back to the yard later Here it is."

Mrs. Pei smiled, and lightly stroked the jade hairpin on her bun. Seeing that their brother and sister had a good relationship, she naturally had no objection, but her youngest son, Xiao Wu, who had a question mark on his face, told him softly: "On the way, we must also take care of each other." Be careful and go."

Xiao Wu: =口=! ?Abandoning myself again, I'm going to make a fuss!

After Xiao Wu was supported by the servant girl and got into Pei's carriage, Xiao Wu was still looking at this side eagerly.

Xiao Hua looked at the precious daughter who was held in the arms of the eldest son, and the second son who was looking at this side eagerly, couldn't help showing a look of irony, and simply pointed to Pei's carriage, and turned to Xiao Song. Said: "I go to the carriage over there?"

Xiao Song waved his hand, he didn't care!

During the day today, Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife, He Shi, has been sitting with Lu's elder sister, He Shi. At their age, the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet has long been a routine, so naturally they don't have much interest. It's better for the two sisters to talk together. some words.

At this moment, Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife, Mrs. He, came over with the help of a maidservant. Seeing Xiao Yansui who had been hugged by Xiao Heng all the time, the brows could not help but twitched slightly. She just pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

Thinking of today's elder sister Lu's He Shi's words, Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife, He Shi's mood is even more complicated, and it is difficult to distinguish.

Xiao Yansui pretended not to see it.

Although grandma has always disliked her, the greatest advantage of Xu Guogong's wife, He Shi, is that if she doesn't like you, she will ignore you at all, but she will not use methods to toss people overtly or secretly.

Xiao Yansui is not a real child. When she was with her two elder brothers and three cousins, if she was the only one being ignored by her own grandmother, a real child might feel aggrieved and sad But Xiao Yansui didn't, she just felt relieved, and even occasionally getting up early to say hello to her elders would save her grandmother's time, so Xiao Yansui was naturally happy to save trouble.

"Ma'am?" Of course, Xiao Song also noticed the expression on He's face, thinking of what He's said in the Lu family earlier, his heart sank.

He waved his hand lightly, whispered a few words to Xiao Song, smiled and gave Xiao Heng a look, and was helped by the maid into the carriage, still ignoring Xiao Yansui.

Seeing all this, Xiao Song couldn't help but a trace of worry flashed across his face.

After Xiao Heng sent his grandmother away with a smile, he put all his attention on his younger sister, for fear that she would be unhappy and feel wronged.

Among the few people present, only Xiao Yansui breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she didn't care about her grandmother He's, but with He's around, the atmosphere around her seemed to be stuffy, and her leaving made people feel completely relaxed.

Xiao Yansui casually played with the black crane embroidery on Xiao Heng's sleeve, not taking what He Shi just did seriously at all.

However, in this way, Xiao Heng just hugged his younger sister and got into grandfather Xiao Song's carriage.

Xiao Song looked at his precious granddaughter's nonchalant and casual look, and scratched his beautiful beard. In the end, he could only smile and sigh, and said, "I knew that Liu Niang has always been a big-hearted person."

The movements of Xiao Yansui's hands stopped slightly, and she let go of the embroidery pattern on Xiao Heng's sleeves, and sat up straight. She was still a little girl with a slightly serious face, but her voice was still soft and tender, "Ah Weng, My brother and I have something to tell you."

Xiao Heng was taken aback for a moment, looking at his sister with deep eyes, "Say it now?"

Xiao Song was also stunned immediately, "What's wrong?"

"Princess Wan'an." Xiao Yansui blinked and said these four words.

Xiao Song suddenly took a deep breath, opened his eyes wide, and looked at his granddaughter without blinking. For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind...
